Listen On: Apple Spotify Other Apps

Gill welcomes Nikki Eisenhauer to the podcast. Nikki is a licensed psychotherapist, life coach, and the host of the Emotional Badass Podcast. If you struggle with alcohol, then it's highly likely that you also struggle with handling emotions in a healthy way. Gill loves the way that Nikki discusses emotions in her podcast, and knew her expertise would be the perfect addition to Sober Powered.

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • How Nikki started her career working with people who struggle with addiction and trauma

  • How to connect with your emotional self vs your thinking self

  • How to just “be” and not deal with constant overwhelm

  • How to break out of the mindset of needing to get to a certain point in life to be happy

  • Why your emotions are okay and how to embrace feeling them

  • How trauma can disconnect you from your body, what that looks like (hypervigilance), and how to reconnect
